Craftsman 9 Drawer Stationary Storage Unit on Clearance!

Jan 21, 2010 Stuart 8 Comments

While searching for additional products to add to our Sears & Craftsman Clearance Deals page, we spotted this fantastic deal. This Craftsman stationary storage unit has 9 Griplatch ball bearing drawers, and is quite spacious at 47″ wide, 18″ deep, and 54-1/4″ tall. Actually, this unit is better described as massive, with phenomenal capacity. The regular […]

Thread Checkers, Screw Gauges, & Size Identification

Jan 21, 2010 Stuart 8 Comments

After posting about Lee Valley’s new thread ID tool, we started thinking about other thread-identification tools that we’re familiar with. Identifying a thread is usually done in one of two ways – by matching an unknown thread to a fastener of known thread, or by measuring and comparing the diamater and thread pitch of a fastener.  Following are a few types […]

Stanley FatMax Functional Utility Bar Now in Yellow

Jan 20, 2010 Stuart 1 Comment

Someone at Stanley though that they could pull a fast one on us, but oh no, we caught on! That’s right, they thought that they could just go ahead and improve the FatMax Functional Utility Bars (FuBars) by giving them a high visibility yellow powder coat without anyone noticing. But we did!

A Preview of the Spectacular Paulding Hammer

Jan 19, 2010 Stuart 13 Comments

The Hammer, designed and crafted by John Paulding, is by far one of the most magnificent tools that we have ever laid our eyes upon. Still, merely describing The Hammer as a machinists hammer, as exemplary as it is, would never do it justice. Not just a tool, The Hammer is a work of art!

The Imaginatively Designed Craftsman MiterMate Miter Saw

Jan 18, 2010 Stuart 10 Comments

The Craftsman 10″ MiterMate Miter Saw is unlike any miter saw that we’ve ever seen before. Compared to a traditional miter saw, the MiterMate, with its innovative V-fence system, is said to help woodworkers and DIYers save time while increasing the efficiency and accuracy of their cross cuts and miter joints.

Stanley Bostitch’s CAP1516 is an ultra-quiet and super portable 1.6 gallon oil-free air compressor intended for light duty trim work. Capable of powering a finish nailer, this Bostitch should be able to handle brad nailers, pinners, and staplers as well. The CAP1516 has a power rating of 1.5HP at peak and 1.1HP while running, outputs 2.7 […]

How to Use a Rotary Tubing or Pipe Cutter

Jan 15, 2010 Stuart 7 Comments

After yesterday’s quick review of a Superior Tools pipe cutter, we received a few inquiries about how to properly use such a cutter. Most if not all rotary tubing and pipe cutters share a similar design. Like a C-clamp, there is always one stationary support, and one adjustable support that is mounted to the end of […]

Quick Review of Superior Tool ST-2000 Pipe Cutter

Jan 14, 2010 Stuart 4 Comments

I needed to make two cuts in a length of 1″ Schedule 40 galvanized steel pipe, and did not have the tools available to do so. There are many hand and power tools that would have been appropriate for a job like this: an angle grinder, chop saw, metal cutting circular saw, snap pipe cutters, rotary pipe […]

Ryobi Tek4 Snips & Screwdriver Set – a Closer Look

Jan 12, 2010 Stuart 6 Comments

As previously mentioned, the Ryobi Tek4 5-piece kit features two new additions to the Tek4 lineup – a cordless screwdriver, and power snips. We gave these new Tek4 tools some more thought, and were able to briefly give them a try in-store. All in all, we are pretty optimistic about these new tools, and the […]

Adjustable Wrench with Built-in Ratchet

Jan 11, 2010 Stuart 3 Comments

Take a look at this KR Tools adjustable wrench with built-in 1/4″ drive ratchet that we came across. Quite a few thoughts come to mind, but at no point did we look at the tool thinking “boy, we could really use a tool like that.” We’re quite sure that some people would be able to […]

Lost in Translation – Erem Wire Strippers with “Magic”

Jan 7, 2010 Stuart 5 Comments

Product description and pricing errors are not at all that uncommon on online stores, but some of them are downright amusing. Take, for example, these Erem wire strippers that are claimed to feature magic. That’s right, at the bottom of the list, it clearly says that magic is one of these wire strippers’ main product […]
